Why this home stands out
Five bedrooms in a single-family home is a rare find in this part of Chesapeake — it means you have room for a dedicated home office, a guest suite, and still have bedrooms left over for the whole family. At 3,000 square feet on a residential street, the footprint is generous without feeling overwhelming, and the 1987 build era typically means solid construction with the kind of room proportions that newer, cost-optimized homes often skip.
ALBEMARLE ACRES and the Chesapeake real estate market
Chesapeake is one of the largest cities by land area on the East Coast, and the 23322 zip code sits in its southern reaches — a quieter, more spread-out corner of the city where streets feel residential rather than congested. Corapeake Dr has that classic late-1980s suburban character: established trees, single-family homes with real yards, and neighbors who tend to stay a while. The area isn't a named subdivision with a marquee sign, but it carries the low-key appeal of a mature neighborhood that's already worked out its growing pains. If you've been searching chesapeake bay realty sites for a home that trades flash for function and space, this stretch of Chesapeake delivers. The city itself offers a strong mix of parks, waterways, and retail corridors, and the southern location keeps you away from the heaviest Hampton Roads traffic while still connecting you to Norfolk and Portsmouth in under 30 minutes.

Etheridge Lakes Park, just 0.9 miles out, gives you a natural escape without leaving the neighborhood.

Chesapeake city real estate in this zip code tends to attract buyers who want a quieter pace without sacrificing access to everything Hampton Roads offers.
